Primus Pilus Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 The difference in weathering on the 2 pieces makes it quite spectacular in my opinion. While it obviously is part of the same original sculpture, it really almost looks like 2 independently created objects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
